Don't know what role the tropical storm in the Gulf will play in the coming days. Looks like it will swing west into Texas and then migrate north as far as Southern/Central Illinois. Counter clockwise rotation is sure to tug Gulf Coast humidity into the region
Hot today. At 9am its 84F/29C at IKK with a dew point of 75F/24C. Heat index 91F/33C. Its 83F/28C at MDW and 82F/28C at ORD
Gfs says Louisiana will get hit and the storm will curve up and east while the EURO has it hitting further west near or in Texas. Bastardi thinks EURO is more likely and that the storm may reach strong Cat 1 or Cat 2
Not me. Keep 6" of rain a week coming and solid clouds till Dec. If i never saw a 80f+ it would be too soon. Not much rain today so far. I was hoping for another 4" today.

...EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM CDT THIS EVENING...
The National Weather Service in Norman has issued an Excessive
Heat Warning, which is in effect until 8 PM CDT this evening.
* HEAT INDEX VALUES...From 110 to 115 degrees.
* TIMING...Throughout the afternoon into the early evening today.
* IMPACTS...Dangerously high temperatures and humidity could
quickly cause heat stress or heat stroke if precautions are
not taken.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
An Excessive Heat Warning means that a prolonged period of
dangerously hot temperatures will occur. The combination of hot
temperatures and high humidity will combine to create a DANGEROUS
SITUATION in which heat illnesses are likely. Drink plenty of
fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and
check up on relatives and neighbors. Young children and pets
should never be left unattended in vehicles under any
circumstances. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool
and shaded location. Heat stroke is an emergency, call 9 1 1.
